Fantastic Four’s Michael B. Jordan to join Marvel’s Black Panther

Michael B. Jordan in Creed

Black Panther is an upcoming Marvel Studios film with Ryan Coogler at the helm. Chadwick Boseman will star as T’Challa, with reports of Lupita Nyong’o (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) still in negotiations. Now we have a new report from THR that Michael B. Jordan (Creed, Fantastic Four) will be joining the cast of the Wakandan warrior movie.

This will be Jordan’s third time working with Coogler. (Their previous works together include Creed and Fruitvale Station.)

Who is Jordan going to play? It’s still unknown, but he’s rumored to play a villain.

This marks the second actor who played Human Torch under Fox to join the Marvel camp, with the first one being Chris Evans.
